I was having a discussion about health care with a Tea Party neighbor of mine……..

We finally got to a point where I asked what should be done about someone who doesn’t have health insurance, but gets into a car accident….maybe doesn’t suffer what we would now call “life threatening” injuries, but an injury that would be life threatening if it isn’t treated by a doctor…..the example I used was a broken leg.

His response? Leave him on the side of the road.

It’s just appalling, but that pretty much ended the discussion….I mean how do you try to reason with someone like that?
